Safety warning

Its story

Riva is a village built at the mouth of the Riva Stream, where it meets the sea. The long beach on both sides of the stream mouth becomes a place where visitors from İstanbul swim and walk at weekends. Riva Castle on the headland is thought to date from the Byzantine and Genoese periods. Canoe and boat trips along the stream are among the village's main activities.
